There are many days that I don’t feel like doing anything at all. And some days I don’t do much. But other days, I just keep moving. And as I get some momentum, I begin to feel productive and my day becomes meaningful. I then challenge myself to see how productive I can be for the day. How much I can cross off my to-do list.
I once read an article or maybe even a book that said something along the lines of, “No matter how much you cross off your to-do list, the list will never end”. It makes sense. Everyday life happens and there are more things to do. Sometimes they can be permanent items on the list, things you do everyday, every week, etc. And sometimes it can be something new. Or something you don’t do that often. Paying bills, doing laundry, exercising, etc.
One of the challenges I am faced with is getting things done one task at a time. I will start one thing, remember I have to do something else and walk away to start that task. That’s the anxiety kicking in. I think knowing I have at least started something makes me feel better than not starting at all. But then again, having 5 tasks partially done also does not feel the best. Is there a correct way to complete multiple tasks?
Everyone does things their own way. All that matters is you keep moving. What methods do you use to complete your tasks, big or small? Do you have problems getting things done? What gives you the motivation to keep moving? Let’s have a conversation!
Keep it moving!
